Jacksonland is their story.One man we recognize: Andrew Jacksonwar hero, populist, and exemplar of the expanding Southwhose first major initiative as president instigated the massive expulsion of Native Americans known as the Trail of Tears.

He gained allies like Senator Henry Clay, Chief Justice John Marshall, and even Davy Crockett. In a fight that seems at once distant and familiar, Ross and his allies made their case in the media, committedcivil disobedience, and benefited from the first mass political action by American women. Their struggle contained ominous overtures of later events like the Civil War and set the pattern for modern-day politics.At stake in this struggle was the land of the Five Civilized Tribes.
